On February 2~27, seventy teams will be recruited to participate in the “Hangang River Street Performance Artists 2015.” The selected teams will perform from April 1 to July 31, and the best performers will be granted a period extension.

Any individuals or teams willing to donate their talents, and bring joy to Seoul citizens in Hangang Park, can apply, and all genres – singing, magic, instrumental performances, dance performances, etc. – are possible. Teams (and individuals) who can perform more than three times a month in Hangang Park are more than welcome.

Those who are selected to be performance artists will be given a street performance artist certificate, an incentive to be the best performer of the month, an opportunity to take part in the street performance festival held in July and August, a certificate to establish their volunteer activity, and activity fees (four hours per day, KRW 8,000 per person).

With the street performance artist certificate, performers can perform wherever and whenever in Hangang Park, with the support of eleven Hangang Park information centers. The Hangang Park parking lot (one car per team) can be used and promotional activities for performances will be supported.
